Maybe quite a lot, experts say. Studies show that the gap between getting just enough sleep and getting too little sleep may affect your health, your mood, and your weight. A good night’s sleep can lower blood pressure and elevated levels of stress hormones, which are a natural result of today’s fast paced lifestyle.
